Boom Company Information

Boom Supersonic, launched in November 2015 and part of the Y Combinator W16 batch, is a pioneering company in the industrials sector, specifically within the aviation and space sub-industry. Headquartered in Colorado, USA, with locations in Centennial and Englewood, Boom employs a team of 227 professionals. The company is renowned for developing Overture, the world’s fastest airliner, which is expected to fly at twice the speed of current airliners and reach altitudes up to 60,000 feet, allowing passengers to see the curvature of the earth. Overture is uniquely designed to operate on 100% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and is set to transform long-haul flights by covering distances like New York to Frankfurt or Tokyo to Seattle nonstop. The aircraft, slated for rollout in 2026, test flights in 2027, and type certification by 2029, aims to meet stringent noise regulations without the use of afterburners. Boom’s order book for Overture includes 130 aircraft from prominent airlines such as American Airlines, United Airlines, and Japan Airlines. Collaborating with industry leaders like Northrop Grumman, Collins Aerospace, and GE Additive, Boom is also exploring government and defense applications for Overture. The propulsion system, Symphony™, developed in partnership with entities like Safran Landing Systems and Florida Turbine Technologies, underscores Boom’s commitment to economical and environmental sustainability in supersonic travel. Boom aims for carbon neutrality by 2025 and net zero greenhouse emissions by 2040, having already achieved carbon neutrality since 2021 through reduction initiatives and carbon credits. The company supports a flexible work environment, offering remote and partly remote options, and operates across the United States and Canada.
